The Boston Terrier is a dog originating
from the USA. This breed originated in Boston, Massachusetts,
in the late 19th century, by combining the English White Terrier
with the English Bulldog, and was originally called the Boston
Bull.
Colors of the show purposes include black,
brindle, or seal with white markings, seal being a black color
with red highlights that are visible mostly in the sunlight.
The AKC now recognizes 10 coat colors when registering the
Boston Terrier. Size categories are under 15 lb (6.8 kg),
15 to 20 lb (6.8 to 9.1 kg), and 20 to 25 lb (9.1 to 11.3
kg). The breed standard calls for a dog that is short-muzzled
and short-backed.
